Extract

A few years ago Dr. Henry K. Townes and his family made a large collection of Ichneumonidae in Japan. He has since lent me the Exenterini from that and some other Asiatic collections. In 1960 I travelled to Europe and was able to study most of the types and the large collection of the tribe in the hands of Mr. G. J. Kerrich at the British Museum of Natural History. The examination of all this material, especially the Asiatic species, has proven so illuminating that I feel a further consideration of generic limits is now due.
